About
Rick Tumlinson is widely known as the “godfather” of the commercial space movement. A six-time witness before the U.S. Congress, he co-founded the XPRIZE and helped shape the shift from government-only exploration toward a more open, entrepreneurial, and commercially driven frontier in space for investors, founders, policymakers, and the next generation of builders.
